A MONUMENT TO THE MEMO
RY OF EX-GOV. PHELPS.

Of all the men connected with the
history of Missouri, none will So live
in the hearts of a grateful people as
the late Ex-Governor John :. Phelps.
He was a friend to Missouri always,
but it was during the days when she
was torn by war, and her wounds bled
at every pore that he showed what his
friendship meant. No test of his
powers was too great for his zeal; no
task too formidable that would tend
to the protection of Missouri, and
hence it seems but fitting that Missouri
should mourn over his death and IN
memorian erect a suitable monument.
Of him, it has been truly said, lat
his home in Springfield, Mo-, politi-
cal friends and enemies recognized the
mao of Incompatible virtue, whether
as an official, or citizen. a statesman,
a lawyer, friend or an enemy, his
manly bearing lefty integrity and
brilliant virtues were apparent AT
his home then, it would seem to be
particularly fitting the monument
should be erected, and the whole stale
allowed TO contribute, remembering
that there are humanity's noblemen.
whose lofty qualities of head, of heart,
and of hand call for perpetuatIon in
prose and poetry, in statues and
monuments, that lesser men NAV be
led TO follow, even afar. in their foot

How the Japs Measure Time.

A party of An. ,ricans, describing .
shopping tour while recently in Japan,
refer among other things to the clocks
shown them. Some were constructed
on American models. while others were
fashioned upon principle peculiarly
Japanese, and supposed to be more
convenient for the registration of their
singular time. The twenty-four hours
are divided in Japan into twelve
periods of time, six of which are ap-
propriated to darkhess and six to the
light. The day being calculated from
sunrise to sunset, there is a necessary
variation in the length of the six day
and six night hours, the latter being
the longest in winter, the former in
summer. The clocks are altered
periodically to silit the seasons of the
year.-yegelers Weskiu. -.

The Sedalia BAzoo has changed
from a morning TO an evening paper.
The fast mail lays the ST. Louis

BAzoo an evening paper and it is a
good one. We get it at. $40 in the

ANCIENT GoLo-pIGGERS.
Remarkable Ruins Found i'm Africa Among
the Huts of the Savages.

IN
the Huts of the Savages.
Some way south of the Zambcsi river
there is large region, extending from
the sea nearly 400 miles inland. and
800 to 400 miles toward the south, in
which ruins are constantly being dis
covered. proving that in prehistoric
times the country was inhabited by -
civilized people. To-day only the
rudest black tribes inhahit this land,
save in few places where the Porta-
guese have established stations. The
little beehive hutS of the natives are
seen among massive ruins betokening
degree of architectural skill which
riN ais that of the ancient AZtecS. Our
knowledge eff these ruins is still far
from perfect. Our earliest records of
travels and trade on the east African
coast, extending back to the beginning
of the Christian era, do not mention
them. Only in recent years have the
travels of SelOuS. Efskine. Mauch,
Baines, Mohr and O'Ncill revealed tons
the monumental evidence this country
contains.
The coast town Snfala is shown ON all
maps of East Africa. Near that town
Carl Mauch found extensive ruins re-
markable for their enduring nature and
strange shapes. There are partly ruined
walls. still thirty feet high and twelve
feet wide at the base, built of small
hewn blocks of granite. In these
walls, some times fifteen To twenty
feet from the ground. are imbedded
one end of blocks of stone eight
cen to twenty feet long. which
were evidently used TO support CALLER
les. Here and there. built in the walls
or standing by themselves, are round
stone towers which evidently rose To
heights of thirty to fifty feet Similar
masses of masonry are found a far rs
three hundred and fifty miles inland
and a little north near the coast.
1t is not positively known yet who
built these ancient structures. No
trained archeologiSt has visited them,
and no search has yet been made for

Gently heard that there are numerous
inscriptions on the ruins about Manica.
All these ruins are surrounded by sur

this country was occupied some time
before the Christian era by great
colony, probably of Phgnician origin,
and that its chief occupation was gold
mining.
Mr.. O'Neill says that these numerous
ruins are nearly as well preserved as
those of Assyria- Some day, no doubt,
they will be Systematically studied

This is a very easy and simple opera.

principal, but as a rule with the aver
age farmers, they work awkwardly at
such times. When your swarm com

or making noise OF any kind, as i: is
worse than useless. The bees will set
tie of their own accord as a rule, but if
they do not seem inclined to settle, moth
ing will bring them down as soon as wa
ter. 1t is best to use rce-pump for
this purpose, so as to throw the water
in spray. Set your, hive where you
wish it to remain, and when the bees

and carry the bees to the hive and lay
them directly in front of the entrance.
and start the bees towards the entrance
by brushing a few from the cluster, and
as soon as you get few to entering the
hive, all will soon follow, and you will
soon have all safely in the hive, when
you can shake the few remaining bees
from the limb and removeit, and your
work will be completed.
Should your bees cluster on q tree
that you do not wish to cut, shake them
into "swarming box" "a box made for
that purpose) or basket. If the
swarm is high you can tie the basket to
pole, and as soon as the most Of the
bees have clustered on the box or bas-
ket, take them to the hive and shake
them out at the entrance. You will
probably have to repeat this, as some
of the bees will return to the place
